Book 16: Chapter 81: Interesting

A carriage entered Central Continent’s southern outskirts workshop.

Many imperial bodyguards with longswords gathered around this carriage. The closer they got to the workshop’s depths, the more hostility these guards were filled with, but the more they didn’t dare to display their hostility. Their heads were deeply hung, their finger joints turning a bit pale from the force they were clenched with.

The carriage stopped. The Imperial Princess walked out from inside, walked through the heavy layers of curtains and appeared in front of Zhang Ping’s throne.

Zhang Ping already changed into a clean set of Purgatory Mountain Patriarch black robes. He sat on that cold and gloomy soul weapon throne. Even though he absorbed all of those black bugs, his body was instead just as slim as before. His skin also revealed a bit of violet golden luster through its paleness.

The Imperial Princess stood in front of him with her head lowered.

Her lowered head wasn’t out of servitude, but humiliation.

Zhang Ping looked at her coldly, and then expressionlessly said, “I will bring my believers to Dragon Snake Mountain Range and then subdue Great Desolate Swamp. I need you to sweep through all hindrances in my path, ensure that my believers can reach Turtle Edge Mountain, and I also need you to make sure that Yunqin’s military doesn’t do anything foolish.”

The Imperial Princess understood what he was going to do. She suddenly raised her head. However, Zhang Ping already coldly continued, “I do not want to hear any words of refusal. I handed Yunqin to you and granted you enough respect. I didn’t treat you like a servant. Moreover, I can promise you that even after I kill Lin Xi, I can still continue to let you rule over Yunqin. I won’t interfere with your rule of the country, I can ensure peace in this world. This is an extremely fair exchange of conditions.”

The Imperial Princess couldn’t remain as cold as him. When she heard these words, her thin lips looked like they might freeze. She looked at Zhang Ping and said angrily, “Could it be that the only thing left in this life of yours is to kill Lin Xi? If this is it, then what meaning is there left in your life?”

“Meaning?” Zhang Ping only gave her a cold look. Then, he walked past her and looked at the blood-like red curtains behind her. “I only know what is interesting… if I don’t kill him, every day I am alive will feel dull.”

Sanskrit Temple.

A gust of wind swept through the endless sea of sand.

A white clothed monk gradually appeared in the wind, walking into Sanskrit Temple’s buddhist light.

His expression was one of peace, his eyes incredibly bright. Even his body itself seemed to be releasing buddha light.

The workers who were cleaning out the distant canals all turned around one after another. They saw that the buddha light surrounding Sanskrit Temple seemed to change. The gentle buddha light rising above Sanskrit Temple seemed like it was going to form a great buddha.

Zhen Pilu and Yun Hai were also by the canal. When they saw this phenomenon from a distance, the two exchanged a look. Both of them said quietly at the same time, “Brother Xuan Yuan came back.”

A yellow browed old monk walked out from the cavern cliffs. He walked on the yellow sand behind Sanskrit Temple and approached Xuan Yuan.

When he saw the smiling Xuan Yuan greet him respectfully, the yellow browed old monk said expressionlessly, “You’ve already comprehended it?”

Xuan Yuan’s hands moved together, producing a few more seals. He calmly nodded and said, “Abandon the self.”

The yellow browed old monk thought for a bit. He also thought through some things, but he shook his head. “This is not the cure of the foundation we need.”

Xuan Yuan said calmly with a smile, “The world only has a single devil king now. Once the devil king’s inheritance is cut off, this will precisely be our foundation’s cure.”

The yellow browed old monk smiled, calmly and happily saying, “Perhaps what you say is correct.”

Xuan Yuan also smiled. He didn’t say anything else and showed this yellow-browed old monk a bow. Then, he walked past this yellow browed old monk and walked past Sanskrit Temple. He walked past the great canals. He didn’t stop, continuing to walk forward.

“Brother Xuan Yuan!”

Yun Hai and Zhen Pilu rushed towards Sanskrit Temple. Yun Hai was already waving his hands crazily from the distance and screaming out.

Xuan Yuan also smiled while waving towards Yun Hai and Zhen Pilu.

However, his steps didn’t stop. He walked much faster than Yun Hai and Zhen Pilu, which was why his figure quickly disappeared from the eyes of Yun Hai who couldn’t catch up

Yun Hai often saw Xuan Yuan leave. But this time, for some reason, when he looked at Xuan Yuan who he couldn’t catch up to, he suddenly felt a mysterious feeling of sadness. Two streams of tears poured down from his eyes.

Outside Purgatory Mountain.

Many soldiers were already at a loss as to whether they should stay or leave.

They helplessly and respectfully looked at this Purgatory Mountain that previously occupied the highest place in their hearts, all the way until night descended.

Under the sky scene that had just begun to dim, when a thin layer of evening mist emerged, many soldiers suddenly saw some ragged clothed figures.

First, it was a few dozen, then a few hundred, then a few thousand, tens of thousands…

Many high ranking officers had seen ambushes suddenly appear in the evening mist. But this scene of innumerable slaves walking out from the evening mist instead made them feel an even greater state of shock.

Their minds were a bit numb. They never expected Purgatory Mountain to actually have so many slaves, so many slaves that their number was greater than all of the soldiers gathered here.

All of the slaves who walked out from the evening mist were also extremely numb, extremely perplexed.

Most of them already hadn’t left Purgatory Mountain for many years. Apart from the lava flowing volcanoes and smoke filled mines, they didn’t see anything else. Many of them had spent their entire lives in Purgatory Mountain since they were young, many even forgot how to walk straight, crushed under heavy ore daily… it was to the extent where even when they were released and walked out of Purgatory Mountain free for the first time, they were still crawling on the ground.

These ragged clothed slaves who were as thin as a match, walking with hunched backs or crawling, were just like specters under the night mist.

But every soldier knew that what they were seeing was real.

As they gradually left Purgatory Mountain’s mines, as they left Purgatory Mountain’s shadows further and further behind, the numb atmosphere gradually changed.

With a wa noise, one of them released a hysterical howl.

Immediately afterwards, almost all of these slaves seemed like lifeless ghosts that suddenly became living people. They began to howl as if their hearts and lungs were splitting, crying out.

These plains that were covered in broken weapons and corpses now became a true hell.

Many shaking figures walked out from within Purgatory Mountain as well.

These people used to be Purgatory Mountain’s Divine Adjudicators. However, when they walked out from Purgatory Mountain, they were already forced to remove their blood red divine robes.

Without those divine robes, being chased out of Purgatory Mountain, these Divine Adjudicators didn’t seem all that terrifying anymore either.

These Divine Adjudicators also began to feel fear under the howls and screams, their bodies starting to shake.

There were slaves that began to charge at these Divine Adjudicators.

Many slaves fell, but there were Divine Adjudicators who fell as well, releasing cries of despair and fear. Then, there were even more slaves that rushed at the Divine Adjudicators… All of these Divine Adjudicators seemed like they had been thrown into a herd of sheep, ripped apart under fear and despair.

Lin Xi continued to walk with Qin Xiyue in hand. He looked at every peak and every cliff in Purgatory Mountain.

He didn’t worry about how those countless slaves he released were going to survive, because he knew that since these slaves could survive in such a bitter environment like Purgatory Mountain, they will definitely have their way of surviving once they obtain their freedom.

He wasn’t in a hurry to leave Purgatory Mountain either. Apart from cutting off some of Zhang Ping’s resources, thus preventing the ongoing system from making even more red robed Divine Adjudicators for Zhang Ping, there was one other important significance in him coming to Purgatory Mountain; he could use this visit to inform everyone in the world that he has returned.

During the past period, all cultivators were targeted by Zhang Ping. Those who weren’t willing to bow down were either killed, or they could only hide like rats. Even an existence like Green Luan Academy couldn’t maintain their information network. Many people who made Zhang Ping their enemy had no way of contacting each other, let alone knowing where Lin Xi was.

That was why he had to give some people who wanted to find him a bit of time, allow them to rush to Purgatory Mountain to meet him.

He and Qin Xiyue walked through most of Purgatory Mountain’s territory. He killed many Purgatory Mountain Divine Adjudicators who wanted to kill him, destroyed many prisons and released even more slaves. By the time they reached the highest peak’s Purgatory Mountain Patriarch Palace, he felt tired.

That massive ruby throne was already smashed apart. This entire palace was completely empty, without a single thing left.

Lin Xi and Qin Xiyue sat down in this palace, nestling up against each other and fell asleep.

A long Purgatory Mountain night passed.

A glimmer of dawn appeared in the east.

Qin Xiyue and Lin Xi woke up.

Qin Xiyue let go of Lin Xi’s hand. She had a slight smile on her face as she stood up and walked out of the palace. She gazed towards the sun, undoing her hairband.

Her beautiful hair scattered down. After sorting out her hair in a proficient manner, she tied it up again.

Lin Xi walked up to her side.

A rising sun appeared from the volcano in front of the two of them, casting its golden radiance upon their bodies.

“Hold up here… what the heck is this? Qin Xiyue, don’t forget that he’s a married man! Also, I’m so much cooler than him, so shouldn’t you be sending some attention this way?” A voice sounded from the mountain path below.

Lin Xi laughed.

He knew who was here the moment he heard this person speak with a voice that sounded like he needed a good beating.

The fact that this person was still alive, that he could still appear here, made him truly happy, regardless of what he was currently saying.

“Mu Shanzi, I’ve actually always felt like you weren’t that bad. There’s a hot spring at the foot of the mountain, why don’t you head over first and wait for me there?” Qin Xiyue also laughed, turning around and speaking to this person.

The one on that mountain path whose face was covered in grime as if he hadn’t taken a shower for many days immediately became overjoyed. “Okay, I’m going right now!” As soon as he turned around, he immediately became depressed again. He turned around and said with a dejected voice, “Forget it, you won’t go even if I go.”

“I will.” Qin Xiyue looked at the gloomy Mu Shanzi and said this seriously. When light suddenly flashed in Mu Shanzi’s eyes, she then laughed and said, “Me and Lin Xi can watch you bathe together if you want.”
